Wait what if the new tallboy colors are like the current V10 colors?

I'll allow it.....I'd love a TB in the lighter V10 color. I hope its not like the Highball or the older Nomad.

I’d love to see it as well. But I have a feeling it will end up like the older highball colors Frown

Hopefully they will announce the rest of the lineup soon along with availability as 2020's are all sold out around here.

Does anyone know if there will be a updated blur change? I think it’ll probably stay the same and just update colors
I really want to know this too. The blur's HT angle is pretty steep compared to the new Yeti, new Epic, new Transition, etc. I'm hoping for Santa Cruz to slacken it out a bit, but they can't really add travel without stepping on the toes of the Tallboy. If they don't update the frame, I think I'll be shopping for an Epic Evo, but I'd really prefer to stick with SC.

I think they should change it up. I think the least they could do is throw a 120 fork on the trail ready version

I’m looking at the new tallboy and I’m waiting on the 21 model year versions to come out. I can’t get one at my shop either.

Hopefully they release news soon. I want a Hightower but am considering a YT Jeffsy Pro Race as an alternative (which is available in my size right now.....).

Tough decision to wait for a Hightower or pull the trigger on the Jeffsy.

entirely your decision I’m more of a Santa Cruz person myself. I have heard people say bad things about YT’s frames. I think the Hightower is going to be better though because of their suspension design.

Money being equal I agree but of course YT is cheaper making the decision tough. Now I just wish I knew when the 2021's will be available so I know how long the wait could be if we go that route.

Yeah absolutely, yt specs their bikes really well for their price point. I have a feeling 2021 will be out by the 12th to 16th.

Hahaha has to be a little conservative on the date, I had no idea. They changed up the tallboy build kit and the Hightower now uses fox forks witch look awesome on the orange in my opinion

Well, no colors that jump out at me online. Will need to see them in person I guess. Not sure I could go back to a TB at this point, but the white seems to be the best looking color between those 2. Not sure how I feel about the orange on the Hightower. Hard pass on any matte finish.

I wish they put fox shox and droppers on them but for sure having that fox fork is very nice.

The colors are alright this year. They definitely could have done better. Just gotta be hopeful about the others. I gotta see the tallboy in person, that’s what I’m looking at getting so I’m not sure. Also any speculation on a nomad v5?
